Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Natasha Persaud conducted an unannounced Case Management - Deficiencies visit. LPA identified herself and was allowed entry into the facility by Staff, Conchita Gallardo. LPA discussed the purpose of the visit with staff present. Administrator, Faria Huq and Licensee, Rana Huq arrived during the visit. During a complaint investigation, it was discovered the licensee did not submit an incident report involving Resident #1 (R1). On 10/29/25, R1 wandered away from the facility and staff were not aware. R1's Physician's Report dated 05/08/2023 indicated R1 was ambulatory, and had a diagnosis of a Major Neurocognitive disorder. It also indicated R1 was unable to leave the facility unassisted. The licensee failed to report the incident. Today, LPA observed the following deficiencies: A padlock on the front door and a locking device on R1's sliding door exit located in their room. Staff explained R1 wanders, therefore, the locks were put in place to prevent R1 from wandering from the facility; Cough syrup was on the kitchen counter, accessible to residents; A new laundry room was built but the lock was inoperable and could not be locked, which made cleaning supplies and items that pose a danger accessible; Sharp tools were observed in the backyard; The resident's files did not contain Absentee Notifications; and medical assessments were not within a year for R1 and Resident #2, as the reports were issued in 2023. In addition, the licensee made alterations to the facility. Licensee stated licensing was not notified of the alterations to the facility because a permit was not required by the City to add a wall, which was added for the new laundry room. Continued on LIC 809C. While at the facility, the licensee emailed LPA proof of permit for the Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU), along with an updated LIC 999 Facility Sketch to identify the new additions. The administrator explained the ADU has renters that have no access to the facility or residents. During the visit, R1 attempted to exit the facility unassisted through their sliding door located in their room. Staff was able to immediately redirect R1. Licensee and administrator were made aware of the exit seeking behavior. They were also notified awake staff was required for wandering residents. They ensured R1's needs will be met. Deficiencies were observed and cited along with a civil penalty for a fire clearance violation. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with Licensee Rights (LIC 9058 03/22) were provided to Staff, Milagros Galvan whose signature below confirms receipt of these rights.
